The Bachelor: Is Friendship the Most Important Factor in a Relationship?

Pay no attention to their tongue-kissin’, butt-grabbin’, pressed-up-against-the-wall-of-the-hot-tub, full-on “fantasy suite” make-out session. Bachelor Jason Mesnick says he’s just not feelin’ it with Jillian. In fact, in last night’s episode, he called her

..."The Ultimate Friend.” Thanks, Pal.

Have any of you been watching this season of The Bachelor? Jillian said that, when you get old and the physical aspect of your relationship fades, you’ll want your best friend as your companion. Jason said that’s exactly how he saw her—but that feeling of friendship just wasn’t enough. (All hot tub evidence to the contrary!)

What do you think? How important is sexual chemistry in a relationship? Are you looking for your best friend, or is Jason right: that’s not enough?

And, much, much more importantly Do you think Jillian should be the next Bachelorette? What do you think happens with DeAnna? Who do you want Jason to pick in the finale? Count my vote for (drum roll please) Melissa!
